 1        AN ACT to revise the law by combining multiple enactments
 2    and making technical corrections.
 3        Be  it  enacted  by  the People of the State of Illinois,
 4    represented in the General Assembly:
 5                              ARTICLE 1
 6                         GENERAL PROVISIONS
 7        Section 1-1. This Act may be cited  as  the  Second  1997
 8    General Revisory Act.
 9        Section  1-2.  This  Act  is  not  intended  to  make any
10    substantive change in the law.  It reconciles conflicts  that
11    have arisen from multiple amendments and enactments and makes
12    technical corrections and revisions in the law.
13        In  this  Act,  the  reference at the end of each amended
14    Section indicates the sources in the Session Laws of Illinois
15    that were used  in  the  preparation  of  the  text  of  that
16    Section.   The  text  of  the Section included in this Act is
17    intended to include the different  versions  of  the  Section
18    found in the Public Acts included in the list of sources, but
19    may  not include other versions of the Section to be found in
20    Public Acts not included in the list of sources.  The list of
21    sources is not a part of the text of the Section.
22        Section 1-3. This  Act  is  divided  into  the  following
23    Articles:
24        ARTICLE 1. General Provisions.
25        ARTICLE 2. Combining Revisories.
26        ARTICLE 3. Technical Corrections.
27        ARTICLE 4. Effective Date and Nonacceleration.
28                              ARTICLE 2
                            -2-                LRB9000999EGfg
 1                        COMBINING REVISORIES
 2        Section 2-1. This Article revises and, where appropriate,
 3    renumbers certain Sections that have been added or amended by
 4    more than one Public Act.  This Article also corrects errors,
 5    revises  cross-references, and deletes obsolete text in those
 6    Sections.  In certain  cases  in  which  a  repealed  Act  or
 7    Section   has  been  amended  after  being  replaced  with  a
 8    successor law, this Article incorporates  the  amendments  to
 9    the  repealed  Act or Section into the successor law.  Public
10    Acts 89-443 through 89-707 were considered in the preparation
11    of this Article.
12                              ARTICLE 3
13                        TECHNICAL CORRECTIONS
14        Section 3-1. This Article amends various Acts  to  delete
15    obsolete text, to correct patent and technical errors, and to
16    revise cross-references.
17                              ARTICLE 4
18                 EFFECTIVE DATE AND NONACCELERATION
19        Section  4-1.   No acceleration or delay.  Where this Act
20    makes changes in a statute that is represented in this Act by
21    text that is not yet or no longer in effect (for  example,  a
22    Section  represented  by  multiple versions), the use of that
23    text does not accelerate or delay the taking  effect  of  (i)
24    the  changes made by this Act or (ii) provisions derived from
25    any other Public Act.
26        Section 4-2.  No revival or extension.  This Act does not
27    revive or extend any Section or Act otherwise repealed.
                            -3-                LRB9000999EGfg
